The short version

  • Each has a real cost: EasyWorship subscription only rather than a perpetual licence, so presentation software stops when payment stops; Ecclesia pricing is not published anywhere, so a small church cannot budget without a sales conversation, which is a poor fit for the volunteer treasurers who typically make this decision.
  • They diverge on capability: EasyWorship covers Presentation, Ecclesia covers Member and family records.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

EasyWorship

  • Subscription only rather than a perpetual licence, so presentation software stops when payment stops
  • Priced on average weekly attendance, so the cost rises with congregation size rather than with usage
  • Basic starts at $17.50 a month and Premium at $27.50, both quoted as starting prices
  • The included media library of backgrounds and countdowns is Premium only, so Basic users supply their own

Ecclesia

  • Pricing is not published anywhere, so a small church cannot budget without a sales conversation, which is a poor fit for the volunteer treasurers who typically make this decision.
  • The installed base is small and concentrated in India, so there is little peer community, few third-party consultants and limited evidence of long-term product viability.
  • There are no published integrations with accounting packages, payment gateways or presentation software, so data tends to stay inside the system.
  • Support runs on Indian business hours from a single small vendor, which is a real constraint for diaspora congregations in other time zones.
  • Feature depth is well behind established church platforms on areas such as child check-in, volunteer scheduling and multi-site campus management, so growing churches will outgrow it.
